Thank you COVENANT PEST CONTROL for making this story possible to share.
value," says Beth. "The culture we've
built is deeply rooted — parents are
expected to participate."
Crestmont's qualified teachers
develop curriculum, provide learning
techniques and guide parents through
co-teaching at home. "We remove many
of the challenges related to traditional
home school programs or co-ops," says
Beth. "Parents don't have to come up
with lesson plans or creative or innovative
ways to present information. We
provide everything for them."
Crestmont also encourages "enrichment,"
or students pursuing passions
and adventures outside the classroom.
"We have students who work. Another
student is pursuing his pilot's license
and yet another is competing in robotics,"
says Beth. With the flexible school
schedule, many Crestmont families
travel, compete in stock shows or
simply have more time to focus on
what's important to them as a family.
A defining characteristic that draws
families to Crestmont is how invested
teachers and parents are in their
students' academic experience. "We are
a school run by professionals, but
supported by families," says Beth. On
any given day, you can find parents
volunteering at lunch duty or planning
a social event. "You don’t often see that
kind of balance done well, but Crestmont
has been successful," says Beth.
Crestmont hopes to collaborate with
more families and serve as many as 200
students in the future. "It's not the
easiest way to educate your kids," says
Ryan. "But, after 11 years, I can say it's
absolutely worth it."
Crestmont asks students who they
want to be for God and their community,
not just themselves. "Their faith is
their own," says Ryan. "We don't just
want to teach them what to think, but
rather how to think for themselves, so
they know how to navigate the
challenges and questions of life."
"Some of our greatest accomplishments
are seeing who these students
are becoming and how they're applying
what they've learned to help people,"
says Beth. "We're not just educating
them for the here and now, but for who
they become in the world after they
graduate."
